Elle's Notes: Honey Granola credit: Tamara
The last time I made this I did not put in dried fruit. I used more oats, coconut and almonds in place of the fruit. I prefer it that way and you can add the fruit when you serve it. I find that adding the dried fruit when baking toughens the fruit.
List of Ingredients
4 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
2 cups sweetened, shredded coconut
2 cups sliced almonds
1 1/2 cups dried cherries, chopped
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup good honey
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Recipe
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Toss the oats,
coconut, almonds, and cherries together in a large
bowl. Pour the vegetable oil and honey over the oat
mixture. Add the cinnamon, and stir with a wooden
spoon until all the oats and nuts are coated with the
liquids. Pour onto a sheet pan. Bake, stirring
occasionally with a spatula, until the mixture turns a
nice, even golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes.
Remove the granola from the oven and allow to cool,
stirring occasionally. Store the cooled granola in an
airtight container.
